A week before KISS will be inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame the band will play an acoustic show at the San Manuel Indian Bingo and Casino in Highland on Thursday, April 3.

KISS: An Acoustic Evening And Stories With KISS, the show will feature the band sans makeup and telling stories along with the stripped-down, full band tunes. Tickets are $65-$75 and go on sale Friday, Feb. 28 at 11 a.m. via Ticketmaster or at the box office at San Manuel. Visit Sanmanuel.com for more information on the show.

KISS will be inducted into the Rock Hall in New York on April 10, but have chosen not perform. Says the band:
"KISS has always been a band unlike any other. That is why we started KISS. That is why we continue KISS. Being unlike other bands also means making choices and decisions unlike other bands. This is understandably an emotional situation where there is no way to please everyone. To bring this to a quick end, we have decided not to play in any line-up and we will focus our attention on celebrating our induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame."
Joining KISS in the 2014 class of inductees are NIRVANA, PETER GABRIEL, HALL AND OATES, CAT STEVENS, LINDA RONSTADT, ANDREW LOOG OLDHAM, BRIAN EPSTEIN, and THE E STREET BAND.
